Israel To Bring Terrorist Attempt To Shoot Down El Al Plane Before ICAO
JERUSALEM, (JTA.) - Israel will bring the narrowly aborted terrorist attempt to shoot down an EAE plane near the Rome airport on Sept. 5 before the International Civil Aviation Organization's (ICAO) general assembly currently meeting in Rome, official sources said here on Sept-. 6. The sources said the Israeli delegate to the ICAO meeting would raise 'the matter within a few days. Ttiey said the plot to destroy an Israeli airliner with Soviet-made ground-to-air missiles demonstrated clearly who endangers civil aviation and who should be condemned- Last week, the ICAO condemned Israel by an 87-1 vote for its Aug. 10 interception of a Lebanese airliner. The ICAO, a UN 'body, is considering means to curb international air piracy. The Rome meeting ends Sept. 21. .
Details of two Soviet-made SA-7 type missiles cached by Arab terrorists in a house in Ostia on the Italian coast less than 10 miles from
Rome Airport were released by Italian police on Sept. 6. They were described as 4.3 foot solid fuel missiles ■ equipped with heat sensitive homing devices and an ef¬ fective range of 10,000 feet. According to Italian security sources, the terrorists planned to shoot down the Israeli airliner at a height of about 300 feet as the plane passed over the Italian coast preparatory to landing at Fiumicino Airport. The terrorists had a second missile in reserve should the first have' failed to hit its
target, the Italian sources said. They said the attack, foiled as the result of a tip-off from Israeli intelligence Service, was to have taken place Sept. 5, the first an¬ niversary of the massacre of 11 Israeli Olympic athletes in Munich last year by terrorists of the Black September organization.
